Crafty Sher Cupcake demonstrates how to make homemade ice cream using a KitchenAid mixer and an ice cream maker attachment. The process is simple, and the result is a delicious, creamy treat that you can customize to your liking.
The Ingredients 🥣
To start, you’ll need a few basic ingredients:
- 2 cups of whipping cream
- 1 cup of milk (Sher uses 2% milk, but you can use any type you prefer)
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Sher emphasizes the importance of using quality ingredients, especially the vanilla extract. She uses Mexican vanilla extract, which she praises for its strong, rich flavor.
The Process of Making Icecream in KitchenAid Mixer 🍨
Once you’ve gathered your ingredients, the process is straightforward:
- Combine the whipping cream, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a large bowl. Mix until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least half an hour. This step is crucial for achieving the right ice cream consistency.
- While the mixture is chilling, prepare your KitchenAid mixer with the ice cream maker attachment. Sher uses the KitchenAid ice cream maker, which consists of a special bowl that you keep in the freezer and a paddle attachment.
- Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into the ice cream maker while it’s churning. The churning process takes about 15-20 minutes.
- When the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, it’s ready! If you want to add mix-ins like fruit, nuts, or cookies, this is the time to do it.
The Result 🎉
The result is a batch of fresh, homemade ice cream that’s ready to enjoy immediately or store in the freezer for later. Sher notes that the ice cream is soft and creamy at this stage, perfect for topping off a hot dessert or enjoying on its own.
Making your own ice cream at home allows you to control the ingredients and customize the flavors to your liking. Plus, it’s a fun and rewarding process!
